Knight Captain and the lack of deflection

How do GFs that make use of the KC set get around the complete lack of deflection that it offers? With the Plate Agility feat in place, my KC set offers nearly 10% less deflection while only adding on ~3% more DR when compared to my Timeless set. I've never been a fan of the KC set purely because of this fact. It seems a significant amount of personal survivability and DPS are sacrificed in the pursuit of party buffs.
PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.

    I'm using KC for PvE Dungeon/Skirmish run, I dont really feel squishy with less deflection (im at around 1.3k deflect with Stone summoned). True that deflection is one of the best defensive stat, but for me High HP + decent Regen > Deflection (in my full PvE set I have 35/36k HP + 1.9k Regen). HP and Regen are GF's key stats in my opinion.

    I really need to get my GF's HP up. I sit at around 31K and when I think that my Destroyer GWF has the same amount I cringe a bit lol

    The Devs should give the GF the most HP in relation to Constitution of any class.
